The son of 15-time major winner Tiger Woods, Charlie Woods carded a 6-under-par 66 in the final round to win the American Junior Golf Association's Team TaylorMade Invitational on Wednesday in Bowling Green, Florida.

Woods, 16, collected eight birdies against two bogeys on Wednesday to finish with a three-round score of 15-under 201 at the Streamsong Resort Black Course. The AJGA is the nation's premier junior circuit.

He bested the 71-player field by capturing a three-stroke victory over Luke Colton, Phillip Dunham and Willie Gordon.

Woods is projected to vault up the AJGA rankings in significant fashion, going from No. 606 entering the week to No. 14, according to reports.

He was competing in his fifth AJGA event - his previous best finish was a tie for 25th at the Junior Invitational at Sage Valley in March.
